Temporarily put away uncommitted changes in Subversion (a la “git-stash”)

This blog post advises using diff and patch.

• git stash approximately becomes svn diff > patch_name.patch; svn revert -R .
• git stash apply becomes patch -p0 < patch_name.patch

Note that this doesn’t stash metadata changes or (I think) directory creates/deletes. (Yes, svn tracks those separately from directory contents, unlike git.)
